Awful book - Hollywood legends mixed with porno models!,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Glamour Girls: The Illustrated Encyclopedia (Taschenbuch)
I am so glad I was able to see a copy of this book before I ordered it because I would have hated to shell out good money for it. In this author's eyes, the legends of Hollywood be they Harlow or Hayworth are no more accomplished or important than last month's Playboy centerfold! I feel there are two very different markets the author is trying to combine, those who love Hollywood and those who love "retro raunch" as they call it or contemporary nudie models and this book is quite clumsy in its attempts to equate the two. Most audaciously, the author lists these 1,000 women in some sort of sexy importance order and somehow a number of women with no more accomplishment than being say Miss April in Playboy may rank above a Hollywood legend. Thus you have Clara Bow, THE sex symbol of silent films, and Mae West, whose sexy films truly changed the film industry barely making Sullivan's top 100! And you have Dorothy Lamour, one of the top four pinup girls of World War II barely making the top 350! And worse of all are these little small paragraph biographies of the women that anyone with the slighest knowledge of movies could have written (and written better because I noticed several factual errors even in this short space. Indeed the author seems to know little about general film history, despite claiming this is an "alltime" sex symbol list I spotted maybe only three women from the silent era) There are several topless photos of several completely obscure women that are totally meaningless to anyone unless you are really into porno. I'm not a prude and I don't mind at all that someone may be interested in more data on these nudie girls (if you can call tiny paragraph bios "data") but please have a little respect for the legitimate film stars and their legacies and don't be so sexist as if to suggest they have nothing more to offer than the visual appeal of a men's magazine model.

Give This Some Time To Grow On You,
Von
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Glamour Girls: The Illustrated Encyclopedia (Taschenbuch)
My first reaction when opening this book was a Groan. Few Color pictures, with most pictures small and in B&W. After the second and third time, however, I realized that this book was a bit of a gem. The women in this book range from 40's pinup girls to 90's supermodels. While the pictures are small, this just allows for more women! Also, I found it fascinating seeing women from the 60's and 70's that I had forgotten, as well as discussing with friends how they would have rated these women any different from the author! If you are looking for a book with glossy color photos, this is not for you. However if you are looking for a comprehensive guide to most of the beautiful women from the last sixty years, with pictures and bio's, pick this up. Let it grow on you. It can be fun!

Too much of a good thing?,
Von
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Glamour Girls: The Illustrated Encyclopedia (Taschenbuch)
This is a very, very fun book with which to while away a rainy Saturday afternoon. But 500 glamour girls, with a photo and bio each (photo larger and bio longer) would have made for a better book. And if you think this book has an ugly cover, check out the author's tome called BOMBSHELLS!
